Foodborne illness is the contamination that results from the spread of bacteria from meat to vegetable. Various types of pathogenic micro-organisms get access to food, which is rich in nutrients and allows bacteria to flourish. When such contaminated foods are eaten, they cause foodborne illness.
Answer:
Choice C., High blood glucose levels can result from an overproduction of insulin
Explanation:
Blood sugar levels are regulated by two pancreatic hormones—insulin and glucagon. When blood sugar levels increase, insulin is released (beta cells of the pancreas), it binds to its receptors and consequently increase glucose uptake by cells, which effectively lowers blood glucose levels. On the other hand, when blood sugar levels decrease, glucagon is released (alpha cells of the pancreas), it binds to its cell receptors, and causes glucose to be released into circulation, thereby increasing blood glucose levels.
D. White dwarfs are the stars in the lower left region of the H-R diagram
The genetic code defines how codons, sequences of nucleotide triplets, specify which amino acid will be added next during process of translation (protein synthesis).
The genetic code is universal among organisms. That means that the same codons code for the same amino acids in different organisms.
It is known which amino acids are coded by which codons. If we know sequences of amino acids, we then also know sequences of nucleotides in DNA/RNA. If we know DNA/RNA sequences we can then reveal relationships among different organism by compering similarities in those sequences.
